The paper introduces a self‑localizing MIMO beam‑mapping framework that builds a hierarchical wireless memory using sparse channel state information (CSI) without explicit location labels. It employs beam‑domain RSS as compact inputs, a dual‑scale extractor for angular and temporal dependencies, and a hybrid temporal encoder to infer physical anchors that index a structured radio map. The radio‑map embedding enables continuous updates and full‑CSI reconstruction, yielding over 30% better anchor recovery and more than 20% channel‑capacity gains in NLOS beam tracking compared to Kalman‑filter methods.

WiNeRF is a neural field framework that learns a spatially continuous, complex-valued wireless channel representation from sparse channel state information collected by commodity WiFi devices. It incorporates system constraints such as antenna geometry, limited spatial resolution, and phase uncertainty through a 3D conical wave sampling model, a multi-resolution implicit scene representation, and a differentiable optimization framework. In diverse indoor environments with non‑line‑of‑sight regions, WiNeRF achieves a median prediction SNR of 5.3 dB, outperforming prior neural baselines by 4.9 dB on average, and produces a task‑agnostic channel representation that can be reused in standard signal‑processing pipelines without hardware or protocol changes.

arXiv:2607. 01921v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Communication systems designed for reliable data reconstruction, rather than task-oriented communication, typically rely on separate source and channel coding and incur high latency under limited spectrum availability and fading channels.
arXiv:2607. 20909v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Radio map (RM) estimation aims to reconstruct the spatial distribution of wireless signal characteristics, such as received signal strength (RSS), from sparse measurements, a task that is critical for spectrum management, interference mitigation, and localization in modern wireless networks.
arXiv:2608. 09285v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Learning-based wireless localizers often fail to utilize geometric information about the propagation environment, limiting their ability to exploit non-line-of-sight (NLoS) propagation and generalize across scenes.
CIG-MAE is a self‑supervised framework for WiFi‑based human action recognition that uses a cross‑modal masked autoencoder to reconstruct both amplitude and phase of Channel State Information. It introduces an adaptive, information‑guided masking strategy that focuses on high‑density time‑frequency regions and employs a Barlow Twins regularizer to align cross‑modal representations without negative samples. Experiments on three public datasets show that CIG‑MAE outperforms state‑of‑the‑art SSL methods and even surpasses a fully supervised baseline, highlighting its data efficiency, robustness, and generalization.
arXiv:2606. 08324v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Passive long-wave infrared (LWIR) hyperspectral imaging under a standoff geometry depends on atmospheric absorption and emission, as well as reflected radiance, thus making atmospheric compensation essential to get knowledge of a target of interest.
